<p><span style="font-size: 13.008px;">The correct answer is (C) not only.</span><br></p><div data-answer="c">
<p>In this sentence, we need to use a phrase that shows that the report was both badly written and incomplete. The correct phrase to use is "not only." The phrase "not only" is used to introduce the first of two things or qualities that are being emphasized. In this case, the first thing being emphasized is that the report was badly written. The word "also" is used to introduce the second thing being emphasized, which is that the report was incomplete.</p>
